# Partners & Services

### Partners & Services

The **Partners & Services** section is used to manage integrations with external service providers. These services extend platform functionality by enabling additional processing, automation, or third-party connectivity.

{% hint style="info" %}
Some AI-based services are only available after they have been explicitly activated under [**System Services**](#system-services).

Services are activated at the **account level** and are available to all projects and users, depending on permissions.

### Connecting External Partners

External partners can be connected via the **Connect Partner** action.

When connecting a partner, you define:

* The **service provider**
* Required **endpoints or credentials**, depending on the provider

Once connected, the service becomes available for use within the platform.

Examples include:

* Translation of texts and subtitles
* Text-to-speech generation

System services are managed via **Manage System Services** and can be enabled individually.
